Quick Wear: Male Supporting Role, Your Wife is Here, Do You Want Her?

Chapter 41: The Poisonous Tongue Childhood General 9

Officials of the fifth rank and above and their families had to attend the Queen's birthday banquet, and Jiang Wan was among them.

As soon as he arrived at the palace gate, Jiang Wan saw Qi Yu standing not far away. She turned her face to the side and blinked at him seemingly unintentionally.

Qi Yu paused, trying hard to suppress the curled corners of his mouth.

Jiang Wan was in a good mood and was about to look away when her gaze met Murong Ci's.

He seemed to have been looking for a long time. When he saw Jiang Wan looking at him, his eyes moved slightly and he suddenly raised his lips and smiled.

It was obviously a normal reaction, but Jiang Wan felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart. She knew that Murong Ci was going to cause trouble again.

Murong Ci's purpose was clear, which was to ruin her reputation and he tried every means to marry her, but the methods he used were endless, so Jiang Wan had to be careful at every step.

"Miss Jiang, Miss Liu Shangshu's daughter was looking for you just now. She asked me to bring you a message. Now that you are here, I will take you there."

It was obviously a trap, so Jiang Wan chose to refuse.

Sitting down, the little maid who came over with tea had her eyes rolling around, she must be planning something bad. Jiang Wan was the first to move aside, and sure enough, the scalding tea only spilled on one side, not a drop splashed on her.

Trying to trick her into going downstairs to change clothes? Nothing new.

To be on the safe side, Jiang Wan didn't even eat the food on the table, and he covered his eyes with his sleeves when drinking tea, without even wetting his lips.

Jiang Wan was very nervous after the banquet, but fortunately he got through it safely.

When leaving the palace, Jiang Wan followed Madam Jiang closely to prevent himself from being left alone.

Murong Ci, whose plan failed, could no longer sit still and actually walked towards her openly. Madam Jiang knew his true identity and calmly stood in front of Jiang Wan, preventing Murong Ci from getting close.

"The Fourth Prince has come here in a hurry. May I ask what you can do for me?"

Murong Ci handed over the jade pendant in his hand, "I just saw something dropped on the road, I think it should be Miss Jiang's. If a girl's personal belongings fall into the hands of others, I am afraid it will cause trouble, so I personally delivered the things."

Jiang Wan quickly touched his waist and found that the jade pendant was indeed missing!

She thanked him quickly, but did not take the call herself. Instead, she asked her personal maid to pass it on to her.

Mrs. Jiang didn't want to stay any longer and was about to say goodbye and leave. Unexpectedly, something strange happened. Jiang Wan's clothes suddenly tore apart. Even though she tried to cover them with her hands, a large area of ​​her snow-white shoulders was still exposed!

Just as she was leaving the palace, the lights were on and people were coming and going, including prominent officials and their families. The maid's untimely exclamation drew everyone's attention here.

Madam Jiang immediately rushed over and held her in her arms, but Murong Ci was even faster. He took off his coat and put it directly on Jiang Wan, even showing a sanctimonious look, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry."

Under the gaze of the entire audience, Jiang Wan's blood felt like it was rushing backwards and his head was buzzing.

So that’s it!

From the very beginning, Murong Ci never thought of using those crude means to harm her. He knew he would succeed because her clothes had already been tampered with by Murong Ci.

She was so nervous the whole time. Murong Ci saw it all and might have been laughing and mocking her behind her back.

What a cruel scheme, what an accurate calculation!

Even though Madam Jiang pushed Murong Ci away, she still couldn't erase her misconduct in public, nor could she throw away the clothes that Murong Ci had covered her with.

Mrs. Jiang thanked him hurriedly and took Jiang Wanwan away in the carriage.

But Jiang Wan knew that from this moment on, she was still embarking on the route of the original plot.

......

Within three days, rumors in Kyoto had spread like wildfire. Jiang Wan had fallen from a high-ranking noble lady to the mortal world overnight and had become a model of shamelessness. Many wealthy families with excellent family traditions were discussing privately that if they were to become someone like her who brought disaster to their family, they would have jumped into the river and committed suicide to show their dissatisfaction!

Even though the Jiang family punished many people who spoke foul language, they still couldn't stop the rumors from spreading.

Everyone tried to avoid Jiang Wan, and at this time, the fourth prince Murong Ci entered the palace to ask for permission to marry Jiang Wan as his princess.

Everyone in the court was shocked. Even if Murong Ci had a bad background, he was still the emperor's biological son. How could a woman with no moral integrity sit on the position of the fourth prince's wife?

After this incident, Murong Ci's already unpopular identity became even more disliked by the emperor. How could a useless person who only cares about his emotions be worthy of being his son?

But even if he didn't like Murong Ci, he had to admit that Murong Ci solved a problem for him.

It is true that Jiang Wan behaved disrespectfully in public, but it is also true that she is Jiang Yao’s biological daughter.

He had also heard a lot of the recent rumors in Kyoto. If the Jiang family pushed their daughter out to enforce family rules, they would have a good reputation for being strict, and outsiders would not say much. However, Jiang Yao protected his daughter so well that his attitude was very clear.

After all, he is the prime minister of the current dynasty and a loyal minister who has been with him for many years. The emperor cannot let Jiang Yao down.

The reason why the Grand Tutor's Mansion cannot be caught up in public opinion is Jiang Wan. However, Grand Tutor Jiang loves his beloved daughter and will not let Jiang Wan suffer any grievances, so he will not drive Jiang Wan out.

There was only one way for Jiang Wan to escape from the Grand Tutor's Mansion - a marriage granted by God.

No one in the capital wanted such a woman who had lost her reputation, even if she came from a prominent family. Murong Ci stepped forward at this time to help the emperor resolve a matter.

After much thought, the emperor decided that only Murong Ci met the requirements.

Murong Ci's biological mother is of humble status and will not have the chance to inherit the throne in the future. He does not have to worry that the Jiang family will unite with Murong Ci. Besides, Jiang Wan's reputation is ruined. If Murong Ci insists on marrying her at this time, it must be that he loves her very much in his heart. He will not treat Jiang Wan badly in the future, and he can also give an explanation to Jiang Yao.

The more he thought about it, the more appropriate it seemed, so the emperor directly drafted an edict to grant marriage to Murong Ci and Jiang Wan.

That night, the atmosphere in Grand Tutor Jiang's residence was low.

"This Murong Ci is simply too much. Thinking back to his two schemes, I finally understand his intentions. He doesn't just want my little sister, but the support of our entire Jiang family."

"Wan Wan, as long as you don't want to, no one can force you! Murong Ci is extremely arrogant, and our Jiang family is not easy to mess with. At worst, we can go directly to the emperor and report him for colluding with the remnants of the previous dynasty!"

"..."

The mother and son were arguing non-stop, but Master Jiang had a serious expression on his face, "Wanwan, what do you think?"

Master Jiang only knew that Jiang Wan had discovered the secret of Murong Ci's homosexuality. He previously thought that she was going to be killed to silence her, but now he understood that what Murong Ci wanted to do from the beginning was to drag the Jiang family into the pirate ship.

Looking at things from different angles will naturally lead to different results.

Grand Tutor Jiang had no idea what would happen in the future, nor did he know that Murong Ci humiliated Jiang Wan in every way and later slaughtered the entire Jiang family. From his current perspective, he only felt that Murong Ci was cautious in every step and had the temperament of a wise leader. Even his collusion with the remnants of the previous dynasty and his conspiracy to marry Jiang Wan were all symbols of his resourcefulness.

Master Jiang is not only Jiang Wan's father, but also the patriarch of the Jiang family.

The Jiang family is in a position of being in the center of the storm. If they do not find a way to change in time, they will be liquidated by the emperor sooner or later. If Jiang Wan becomes the queen and gives birth to a prince with royal blood, all problems will be solved.
